Dem: Kushner may have committed ‘indictable’ offense
The Hill ^ | April 18 2017 | The Hill Staff

Posted on 04/24/2017 6:29:45 PM PDT by confederatecarpetbag

House Democrat says Jared Kushner may have committed an "indictable" offense and should have his security clearance revoked.

Kushner, President Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, has said leaving meetings with foreign officials off of his security clearance form was an accident.

But Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.) and other Democrats aren’t willing to let him off the hook.

“House Democrat says Jared Kushner may have committed an “indictable” offense and should have his security clearance revoked. “

WELL... if he didn’t have INTENT, then it should be ok. Hillary did worse, but they claimed she didn’t have INTENT.

So Ivanka hasn’t gotten him to change his policies.

Haven't you heard? Ivanka talked the President into bombing Syria in response to an alleged chemical attack.

Having said that, I do agree that there's litle evidence that Ivanka has her father wrapped around her finger.

President Trump may change his mind on an issue here or there, but if he does, it will be based on his judgement of the information he's presented with, not because Ivanka (or anyone else) "wheedles" him. He's proven over and over that he's his own man...

So you are all for Ivanka and Jared pushing Trump leftward?

Actually, I was probably the most vocal critic of Ivanka and Jared and my posting privileges were briefly suspended because of it.

You approve of their positions, do ya?

Not Jared's current access, but what can you do? He did help engineer Trump's election, so I give him credit for that. There's a reason why Trump has entrusted him.

The lefties have been after Bannon since it was known that he was on Trump's team !

You are not seeing the big picture. The Left is saving Bannon for the kill shot. They cannot afford to take him out right now (probably saving his scalp for the mid-terms, so the base can separate from Trump and Republicans and the Dems would win more seats) which is why they're going after Jared and other low-hanging fruit of Trump's administration. But Bannon is the 12-point buck.

Yes, I’ll have to admit you scored.

Those are numbers 278 and 627 on my list.

I find it especially ironic when they call Trump an anti-Semite, when his son-in-law and daughter are Orthodox Jews.

I don’t think she talked him onto action in Syria. (I think you were kidding...)

He received briefings and acted accordingly.

She and Jared are aids to the president. That’s all they are.

He trusts them not to lie to him or undercut him.

IMO, that’s reason enough to have them there.

He is his own man. I’m not put off by here thinking differently than we do on subjects. I don’t admire that about her, but I don’t think it makes here public enemy number one.

She’s his daughter for crying out loud.

She’s the same daughter he had when he ran on almost every single policy stance we wanted to see done.

Yes, Jared and Ivanka are (modern) Orthodox Jews. It's ironic how hateful some people are. They imagine there will be no consequences.

Oh come on....they've been after Bannon from the get go!

Everyone says that Jared helped get Trump elected, but nobody EVER explains exactly how. I'd like to know!

Gee...E3, your posts must have REALLY been something, to get you a time out. I too have posted, critically, about Ivanka and Jared, but didn't get silenced for it.

You asked for one example; I gave you two. It matters not where on your list they happen to fall. ;^)

THAT'S A CROCK!

I am still a rabid TRUMPER; but, I can and do condemn the lefties in his family, who yearn to drag him into the lefty cesspool.

His older sons and their families are great!

I would like to see them use their glamour to raise funds for the cause of the nationwide opioid addiction crisis. This issue should keep them busy. Keep them away from refugees/ global warming and false women issues.

Something to do with data-mining and pin-pointing where the votes are....say what you want about Jared, but the guy's a genius. Had zero political experience and came up with this election strategy that blew everyone out the water.

Again - I don't support Jared or Ivanka being advisers to Trump. Actually I got banned because I bitched about Trump's Syria air strikes which I'm now eating crow on.

Do you REALLY want me to delve into her BFF and Jared's family?

And I have NEVER been happy about political nepotism.

Now THAT is a wonderful idea; too bad neither of them are going to go anywhere near that subject/problem.

There is a dangerous addiction ravaging FR posters, the “all caps” scourge. It is a sure sign of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Okay, now that I know what he did, that was a good idea and great thing to do; though I wouldn't call it "genius".

Thank you for admitting you were wrong re the dropping of the MOAB. It was the right thing to do.

He hasn't done anything about either....yet, but he embraced both.

I think acknowledged is a better word.

I doubt you can find any reports of those two things being on his top five hundred policies to go for. I haven't heard it discussed since the convention, have you?

I don't think we need to invent things to dislike them, CNN and MSNBC do that much better than we can...........

That's utter nonsense!

I've typed this way since 1998; n00b.
